New York, October 12, 2011 -- A demonstration Sunday against
religious persecution by Coptic Christians and their supporters turned into
fatal confrontations between the military and civilians that left dozens dead,
including a journalist. The Committee to Protect Journalists condemns raids on
two television studios and the cutting of electricity, telephone, and Internet
service to a leading independent newspaper that occurred at the same time. CPJ is
also alarmed by what appears to constitute incitement to violence on Egypt's state-owned
television during the same period.
